Wordless Wednesday


I have been nominated by my friend Sue, at WordsVisual, to take part in a challenge of a photo per day for seven days, of anything from the natural world. And every day I should nominate a new member.
Cypripedium calceolus is a lady’s-slipper orchid growing wild in Sweden, and very much unlike other wild orchids here. This photo is from a very dear friend’s garden – I got the opportunity to photograph the entire garden last summer. Magnificent species.
Today I would like to nominate photographer and blogger Robert Weir at Clicking through the bucket list to take part in the 7-day Nature Photo. He is a brilliant photographer and a worldwide traveller. I would love to see what he might come up with for this challenge….. though I am not sure there is spare time enough for this busy man. If not – no worries, Robert, I am only glad to rekommend your blog to other bloggers!

Everything is in transition.
The WordPress Challenge is to show this in pictures.
The old houses in Jurmala outside Riga most certainly were – living evidence of transition not always being a word with a less positive meaning.
